Hi everyone, i have just finally made my way over here(after getting a bit lost) anyway for those who dont know me, I have been collecting for 15 years, mainly vintage ( and modern) and I have a big passion for POTF coins and Droids/ewok unproduced and prototype coins, also any other star wars coins which i am trying to complete an impossible task

I also have started to get my own stormtrooper costume together

Anyway HI!!

Welcome over, Carl. Love to see some shots of the collection and the Stormie costume.

These were taken a year ago, but i have only added a few items since (Dulok scout prototype coin, Sisse Fromm Prototype coin, Bossk 45 german bk and the I have all but completed the TAC coins and got them framed)

Hello Carl good to see you

When will you snap some newer collection pics?

nothing much has changed, apart from things being moved around abit, when i gewt my stormtrooper armour i will update

Nice proofs btw , ooh I do like a good proof display

Yeah! somthing i would like more of, but at them moment way down on my priority list

I have to ask , is your 8D8 tri anything special ? I have a bit of a thing with trilogo variants

not that i am aware of, but then again i wouldnt know if it was, i have a close up pic somewhere!

*waits patiently to see a clipper or an Italian import!*

Just let me know if its got any stickers on it lol

lol! i think u are gonna be disapointed

That's ok I collect 8D8 I am used to it

Oh no it looks like a German Punch!

Does it have a lighter yellow background compared to most that are really kind of orangey yellow? If its a light shade of yellow then it is!

Bastard and bugger I need one!

German punch?

Just compared it to my Klaatu Tri and it seems to be a darker yellow than Klaatu

Its a slight variation, the punch hole / hang tab is not rounded (semi circle) its kind of triangular, its apparently an indication of them being distributed in Germany, if you have Stephanes trilogo book there is a slight reference there to it at the start of the carded trilogo section.

Now shall I pm you ? lol

Wow how long did it take to put the set together?

I have been following Shawns journey with his set for a good while now and i know he only has a few left it certainly takes dedication and commitment to put a full set together!

I think the coin sets look awesome in the frames are they custom made or can you buy them like that? (the frames)

Cheers Jay
